A laid-back beauty who just wants to lie flat x a gentle daddy
Su Yang wakes up to discover that she's the mentally ill older sister in a wealthy family's contrast story.
Fortunately, her family still has enough money for her and her younger sister to live comfortably and lie flat.
But the good times don't last. One day, her mother tearfully announces that the family is bankrupt, then pushes her and her sister onto the marriage-alliance bargaining table with trembling hands...
"Yangyang, Miaomiao, go marry into another family..."
She has no choice but to go with her younger sister to a filming studio said to be booked by all the biggest stars, where the two of them are asked to make customized fake videos?
Her sister plays the piano, while she... scrapes away at the violin with no idea what she's doing.
She thinks her mother is just messing around, but it turns out she really is supposed to marry into the Zhou family. Everyone in their circle knows the head of the Zhou family is cold and ruthless, but countless people still want to marry him for his looks and wealth.
When news of the wedding gets out, everyone is envious, though they all know he's marrying a pretty vase to repay a favor. They assume it will be the younger Su sister, and even Su Yang thinks so...
But her mother says it's her...
She swallows a pill.
At first, they keep out of each other's way after the wedding. He's a pretend husband who makes her so comfortable, it's as if he doesn't exist.
Until one day, she is swimming in the back garden, holding a harmless snake, when she runs into the man...
After that, he comes home more and more often...
One day, the old master of the family says that an old friend has two daughters, and since he doesn't have anyone he likes anyway, he should marry one of them to repay the favor.
He glances at the video. One woman is playing the piano with gentle elegance, while the other looks utterly defeated as she plays the violin beside her.
There is no background music at all.
For once, he nods, remembering the grating violin music he heard that day.
After marrying her, he puts her in a separate villa as a pretty ornament, until one day he happens to walk past and go inside.
There he finds her clutching a snake like a little cat...
Later, he sees her perched comfortably in a persimmon tree.
